Sheep Farming 



BY JOHN A. CRAIG AND F. R. MARSHALL 



Illustrated, cloth, ismo, $1.50 



This book deals with sheep husbandry as a phase of intensive 

 farming. Recognizing that it is likely to be used by persons 

 unfamiliar with sheep, the authors have worked from the stand- 

 point of the producer of the market stock rather than from the 

 standpoint of the professional breeder. The various breeds are 

 discussed in such a way as to enable the reader to select the 

 kind that is most likely to do well under his conditions and to 

 acquaint him with the care it is accustomed to and needs. The 

 management of the flock in the fall, winter, spring, and summer 

 seasons, the formation of the flock, the selection of foundation 

 stock, and the means of maintaining a high standard of flock 

 efficiency are all discussed in subsequent chapters. 



Principles of Fruit Growing 



BY PROFESSOR L. H. BAILEY 



New edition, cloth, izmo, $1.50 



Since the original publication of this book, in 1897, it has gone 

 through many editions. The progress of fruit growing in the 

 meantime has been very marked and it has been necessary to 

 completely rewrite the work. The present issue of it brings 

 the accounts of the new practices and discoveries as they relate 

 to fruit growing up to date. All of the text and practically all 

 of the illustrations are new.
